Sometimes I live and work on Luxury Mega Yachts, sometimes I get dirty and salty working on Schooners. Spent last few years flip flopping between Key West, St. Thomas, Australia and New England. This blog is just my random ramblings and everyday occurrences. Island life at it's best...and worst!

Tomorrow is Big Nasty's birthday! So in honor of him and everything he stands for, and my love for pickles, I want everyone to know about MANDINGO PICKLES!!!

I met Big Nasty through my ex-boyfriend early this year in Key West and found him quite entertaining. He and his buddies have started their own pickle company and I encourage everyone to head over and buy a few jars to give as Christmas presents this year! Support your local homegrown businesses and all around good guys!

I love it! Seeing as how I really, really, really want one of those vintage Shasta or Scotty trailers, and I want to be a member of Sisters on the Fly one day, when I ran across this song I just couldn't resist! I have been doing some research and the SOTF will be in Canton this weekend at the first weekend trades day thing they do out there in Texas. Check out their site, it's really cool. I miss my country music can you tell??? Well, this is Miranda Lambert and I'm not big on Nashville country, I'm more of a Texas Country kinda girl, always have been. But, this song is cute. Enjoy!

Sometimes I wish I lived inairstream homemade curtainsLived just like a gypsyBreak a heart and roll out of townCause gypsies never get tied down

Sometimes I wish I lived on a mountainDrank from a streamInstead of a fountainI'd stay there, on top of the worldBut I was born a red dirt girl

Unbridled, or tethered in the ride[ Find more Lyrics on www.mp3lyrics.org/gYuc ]Safety of the fenceOr the danger of the rideI'll always be unsatisfied

Sometimes I wish I lived by a pierIn a lighthouse with a chandelierI'd watch everybody's ships come inAnd then I'd sail away with them

Unanchored in a stormOr safely on the shoreIf this is all I needWhy do I want more

Sometimes I wish I lived inairstream homemade curtainsLived just like a gypsy

Now, back to searching for cheap trailers for sale! Yes... I know... it's 4am. I can't sleep. I drank a giant iced coffee at about 11pm. Bad idea. I never drink caffeine anymore and whew...I am feeling it! Simultaneously watching Dazed and Confused which just makes me miss home even more because it's about Texas.

In other news, I'm feeling better even though things here on island aren't going any better. Playing my guitar is like a miracle cure.

Hello out there! I am an outgoing, adventurous chick who loves to live and work on the water. Wether it be fishing, snorkeling, sailing or anything in between you can bet I've been on board. When I am land based I prefer to be in the Virgin Islands or Key West, bartending and dreaming of my future Tiny-House out in West Texas. I am a Texas girl, I love to play my guitar, go out with my friends, paddle board and secretly put together floor plans and designs for my future homes. Welcome to the show!!!
